4 Sneakers All Men Need for 2022 | Mens Fashioner | Ashley Weston

About this video

Weston presents a framework for building a foundational sneaker collection by recommending four essential shoe types for men in 2022: athletic/running shoes for fitness, white leather low-tops for versatility, neutral all-around sneakers for everyday wear, and statement sneakers for personal style expression. Weston emphasizes proper fit, quality materials, and cleanliness while providing specific brand examples for each category.

Key takeaways

• Weston argues that investing in quality running shoes from a specialty store is essential for fitness; he recommends avoiding cheap footwear to prevent injury and recommends brands like Nike for gym use
• Weston contends that white leather low-top sneakers are a versatile wardrobe staple that elevates casual outfits; he recommends Nike Air Force Ones, Adidas Stan Smiths, and Common Projects as quality options, or Converse Chuck Taylors on a budget
• Weston suggests choosing a neutral all-around sneaker in colors like navy for everyday wear; he recommends low-tops like Vans Old School or New Balance 990 series, or high-tops like Converse Chuck Taylors and Nike Blazer Mid 77 for versatility
• Weston advises that statement sneakers should express personal style and serve as the outfit’s focal point, paired with neutral pieces like black or gray to avoid visual competition
